Under God
Praise the Lord for He is risen
Can't teach it in school, can preach it in prison
Liberal leadership is way out of hand
Time we stood up and took control of our land
We survived many wars and a major depression
But can we survive this new oppression
Millions of people see their rights undefended
So the Anti-American is not offended
We founded this country on freedom of choice
Now it appears we have no voice
The dissident one who cries out loud
Has far more rights than the patriotic crowd
We can't have a prayer or a moment of silence
We are asked to accept random acts of violence
Our leaders are oblivious to the people's need
While our corporate structure is infected with greed
We can no longer see where we need to go
Our morals and values have hit an all time low
We need to cure this massive infection
We need to start moving in a different direction
On this sea of discontent we will ride
To recapture our country and restore our pride
To the home of the brave and the land of the free
One nation, UNDER GOD, sweet liberty.
